-Two digital oscilloscopes are dedicated to NMR readout – one for the analysis line NMRs and one for the spectrograph NMRs. The scopes are located in data-U6, in upper two shelves on the right electronics rack. They are isolated from clean ground because this signals from the NMR probes are on a dirty ground.+Two digital oscilloscopes are dedicated to NMR readout – one for the analysis line NMRs and one for the spectrograph NMRs.

-The NMR running programs for both the S800 analysis line and spectrograph dipoles can be started from the desktop of computer [[Software#u6pc5 (data U6)|u6pc5]], by clicking in the icons **NMR Analysis** for the analysis line dipoles, and **NMR Spectrograph** for the spectrograph magnets. Alternatively, the NMR control programs can be run from a Linux session by typing ''/usr/bin/wish analysis.tcl'' in directory **/user/s800/Documents/Run/analysis**, for the analysis line, and ''/usr/bin.wish spectrograph_sjw.tcl'' in directory **/user/s800/Documents/Run/spectrograph**, for the spectrograph.+The NMR running programs for both the S800 analysis line and spectrograph dipoles can be started by logging in to exp-s3-nmr.ftc (10.40.230.111) accessible from the EXP network, namely, from a whatever computer connected to the EXP network,

 Sometimes the initialization of these applications fail. In that case check section [[nmr probes#troubleshooting|"Troubleshooting"]] below). The picture below shows the NMR panel for the S800 Analysis Line GUI as an example. The top (yellow) panel shows the data relevant to the NMR module, the middle (pink) the digitized signal from the oscilloscope and the bottom (blue) the status and measurements for the dipoles.  Sometimes the initialization of these applications fail.

 +==== Spectrograph NMR GUI "locks" in noise or does not see weak resonance====
 +  * This is typically the case when the thresholds in the NMR GUI are not set properly. If they are too low, the program may lock in noise. Conversely, if the thresholds are too high, it may miss a weak resonance.
 +  * Threshold for the Spectrograph resonance can be adjusted by hand in the Spectrograph NMR GUI. In general, a threshold 0.15 mV is good for normal NMR signals, whereas 0.10 mV may be necessary if the signal are too weak.
